Gluten-Free Frikandel Snacks

Ingredients

• 1/2 lb Ground chicken
• 1/4 lb Ground pork
• 2 tbsp Tapioca starch
• 1/4 Onion, finely chopped
• 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp White pepper
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• for frying Vegetable oil
• to serve Curry ketchup
• to serve Mayonnaise

Instructions

1. 1In a large bowl, combine the 1/2 lb ground chicken, 1/4 lb ground pork, 2 tbsp tapioca starch, 1/4 onion (finely chopped), 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, 1/4 tsp white pepper, and 1/2 tsp salt.
2. 2Mix these ingredients together with your hands or a spoon until everything is evenly distributed and well combined. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
3. 3Shape the mixture into 2 to 4 long, thin sausages, similar in shape to a hot dog. Aim for them to be about 4-5 inches long and 1 inch thick.
4. 4Pour enough vegetable oil into a large, heavy-bottomed skillet to cover the bottom by about 1/4 inch. Heat the oil over medium heat until it shimmers, which is approximately 325°F (160°C).
5. 5Carefully place the shaped frikandels into the hot oil. Fry them for about 5 minutes per side, turning gently with tongs, until they are golden brown all over and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
6. 6Remove the cooked frikandels from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Let them rest for 1 minute.
7. 7Serve the hot frikandels immediately with curry ketchup and mayonnaise on the side for dipping.
